First of all Ahmed F. has yet to show that he has gotten the information from anywhere credible. There are many little data brokers out there who will sell you this sort of information, but they usually make up their own rules about how it may be used. I think it is likely he simply appropriated the information from some data broker and decided that he could get rich by selling it geocoded. Second, the supposed free data has no use whatsoever for anyone other than perhaps mass mailers -- it has no place online. It's just a stupid gimmick to drive people to his site. Third, why should other people send him updates if they're paying him for the data? If the data costs money, should it not be reliable itself?
